I was watching t.v. (I know big shocker), and there was a commercial for the Biggest Loser. Here’s the thing, those trainers are sooo tough on those people, and no offense, but those people are not in the best shape. Soooo, why is it that they can work them so hard, but I go jogging twice and sprain my knee! Really, What The Hell? I know, I know, I’m beating a dead horse with this, but it’s really annoying! It’s not like I was running like a spaz or something…really I wasn’t!
There’s something wrong with my dog. Last night he just STUNK! I was shocked that the paint wasn’t peeling off the walls. What The Hell? He had gone out, hadn’t eaten anything different, and was happily oblivious to the noxious odor he was emitting!
Speaking of the knee (oh yet again), Monday at work people were asking me how I was, and they were very nice. But one person just irked me. Her- “How’s the knee?”Me- “hurts”, her-”still?”Me-”Yea, it’s sprained”. Really, What The Hell? Like it should miraculously be all better 4 days later? I mean seriously?
Hey LOST, you know, I’m really trying to hang on until the final end, where ALL WILL BE REVEALED, but I really don’t believe you. Every night you say that more will be explained, and how exciting it will be. Well, What The Hell? I sit there each week and watch it and think, “WHY THE HELL AM I STILL WATCHING THIS DAMN SHOW??” How was there a polar bear on the island? What about the pirate ship? And all the temples? How do you not walk around on an island and not see a ginormous temple? Did Walt have superpowers? Are there zombies on the island? Come on people, stop confusing me with your “flash sideways“. Really? Who came up with that idea? I’ve said it before and I will say it again, “If you reveal in the end, that this whole thing happened in Hurley’s mind in the mental institute, I am going to sue you to get back all the hours of my life I wasted waiting for answers, k?”

I’ve seen Stacy run and I’m pretty sure “running like a spaz ” isn’t out of the realm of possibilities here people. I don’t know What The Hell she’s talking about.
In the past 2 days at work I’ve been told “Sorry doesn’t cut it” by a woman who was like 1,00o years old with 1,ooo years of anger issues and a dirty joke by a dirty old man. What The Hell?
Did you hear that Lindsay Lohan is suing E-Trade over one of it’s recent commercials. She is suing for 100 million dollars for pain and suffering. What The Hell??? Because one baby said “Is that milkaholic Lindsay over there?” Apparently Lindsay Lohan has such big name recognition that just the name Lindsay is enough to make every single person who saw that ad think her and her alcohol problems. Can we say super inflated ego? I saw that ad and didn’t think of her. I saw funny talking babies. I hope E-Trade doesn’t give in to her and her asinine lawsuit.

I came home from work yesterday afternoon and the house smelled so good from the white chicken chili in the crockpot. Then I thought “Is it like torture for the dogs smelling that yummy smell all day?” Wonder if PETA has jumped on that bandwagon yet.
I mentioned that I wanted to go to Walt Disney World for a long weekend by myself to visit our daughter. J-Man said “You can’t go by yourself. You’ll miss us too much.” Oh, riiiggghht, I’ll miss them too much. That’s exactly the reason I can’t go.
It looks like we’re painting J-Man’s room this weekend. That means we’ll be painting over the tropical fish and the whole underwater theme he’s had since he was 2. I worked so hard getting it all just right, sigh. Now it’s going to be basic boy blue and he’s hoping for some Mario, Luigi and Yoshi’s on the wall. I’m going to miss the fishy room, but I guess he’s got to grow up sometime. I just wish it didn’t happen in a blink of an eye.

Having a sprained knee sucks….just sayin’
On top of having the sprained knee, I woke up with laryngitis today, that sucks too.
I’m worried about what the 3rd thing will be…and why does everything bad always happen in 3’s but good things only happen in one’s? Soooo not fair!
My 9 year old son asked me a question today, “Do real little Girl Scouts make the girl scout cookies?”,Me- “No honey, the little girls don’t make them, they sell them”him-”that’s kinda lazy, if they’re called girl scout cookies, girl scouts should have to bake them”. He kinda has a point……
The other day at Walmart I was looking at the game “Just Dance”. I had read on some one’s blog how they loved it, and since I love to dance, I really want to buy it. Of course my 9 year old looks up at me and says, “whatcha looking at?”me-”just a video game I want called Just Dance“, him-”well you’d definitely lose right now if you tried to play that one”. Yep, making fun of his Mom with the sprained knee…..wonder where he gets that from???
Don’t forget to join us for What The Hell Wednesday tomorrow. Really, what the hell?
Today was my yearly checkup with the head of Ophthalmic Neurology at our local hospital. He did my eye surgery a couple of years ago. Sounds like a way bigger deal than it was. Basically he removed the puffy fat beneath my eyes that were there because my stupid thyroid is just a big baby and has mood swings. Sometimes it’s too active and then sometimes it doesn’t want to do anything at all. Bitch!
Another one of the lovely side effects of thyroid problems and specifically Graves disease is that it can cause your eyes to bulge out of the sockets.
So I’m no Marti Feldman, but it does bother me. Today the illustrious doctor mentioned that they could do surgery to help correct it. The least invasive would involve them going in from the outside corners of each eye and removesome of the bone around my eye sockets. All together now..ewwwwwww. Or they can go through my sinuses and remove even more bone from my eye sockets but that may cause numbness in my upper lip. Also, ewwwwww. Then the illustrious doctor said “Well, it’s not like you look odd.” Odd?! Odd?! Just a reminder that even illustrious male doctors are still men and sometimes men just say the wrong thing.

A little over a week ago I started jogging, and I enjoyed it. Well, I was enjoying it until I could hardly walk because my right knee hurt so bad! I finally went to the ER on Sunday and found out that I have tendinitis in my knee. What The Hell? I try to do something good for myself and I end up in extreme pain and walk like I’m 120 yrs. old!
Before I realized how bad my knee was I had to go to the doctor for another problem. I had a UTI (urinary tract infection). I know, this is really border line TMI right now. Anyways, I have never had one before, but knew what it was from stories from other people. When I went to the doctor she asked me if anything had changed, and if I was drinking enough water. Um, let’s see, I started running, and I hardly drink an ounce on water a day. She then proceeds to tell me that you can get a UTI from not drinking enough water, and if I was doing vigorous exercise on top of that, well, the running probably caused it. What The Hell? I mean seriously What The Hell? I’m trying to be healthy and toned, and I end up hobbling along with a busted knee, AND a UTI!!! Come on!
If you are a friend of mine on Facebook then you know I colored my hair red this week. And I mean REALLY red! I asked my husband if he liked my hair. He said, “no I don’t like it, it looks like a wig.”What The Hell? Okay, maybe you don’t like it, but dude, did you really have to come out and say it like that? You could of just said, “no I liked it better brown.” That’s it. (and for the record, I’ve gotten a ton of compliments on it…just sayin’)
Elle
So last night I was talking to Stacy on Facebook chat and I told her that I was too tired to do my What The Hell Wednesday post until the morning. She said “Okay, as long as you do it early so everyone can link up.” Wait a minute sister! What the Hell??? Are you telling me what to do?? She knows I hate that. Besides, all the people that link up?? Last week we did have a banner week with 7 great ladies linking up with us, but still. Don’t tell me what to do.
Did anyone watch The Marriage Ref the other night? What the Hell is up with the husband obsessed with his dead dog? OMG! Did you see the freakin’ shrine he built for it? He’s on the train to Crazy Town and I think his wife needs to jump off. Quick.
Actually, it’s a good thing Stacy has so much to complain about because I don’t. Really, What the Hell? I’m sure it won’t last, but at this particular moment there aren’t any big WTH moments. My husband is home from China so things are back to what is normal for our family, plus he gets extra great husband points for the things he brought back.
I apologize to all of the bloggers out there waiting for me to get this up so they can link up all their What The Hell Wednesday posts. I’ll try to better next week.

I cannot stand to be without electricity. It drives me insane and turns me into a b-i-t-c-h. We lost power last Friday at 2am, and got it back Friday at 2:30 pm. No coffee, no heat, no t.v., no computer…did I mention no heat??? Ugh. I know other people just got their power back yesterday or are still without it, I’m just saying…I don’t deal well without electricity.
My boys want to eat 24/7 right now. And it’s always when I sit down that they ask for something else to eat. I think they have a tape worm or something. I can’t even imagine how much they’ll eat when they are teenagers!
I hate McDonald’s. Actually I like McDonald’s but I hate their commercial. Just when I got that stupid Filet of Fish song out of my head, they go and make a new one with that damn song! Argh! I can’t get that song out of my head.
Speaking of ring tones, my 9 year old has started singing the Geico ring tone. You know the one where the gecko says it’s the most annoying ring tone ever….yea that one, over and over again. Ringdingdingdingdingdingydo, ringdingdingdingdoe. Ahhh, make it stop!

I guess this is the week for getting stupid jingles stuck in your head because it’s been driving me crazy too. My husband has been away in Hong Kong and since I watched a lot of TV as a child of course this is what is stuck in my head
You’re welcome.
While he was away we used Skype to keep in touch. Seeing myself on video wasn’t that enjoyable. I decided that
A. I always look tired
B. I really need a haircut
C. I’m going to get a picture of myself that I don’t hate, blow it up, put it on a popsicle stick and then I can hold it up in front of my face when I talk on Skype. I think there could be a real market for these.
So now that we’ve pretty much guaranteed that you have at least one jingle stuck in your head for the day don’t forget to join us for What The Hell Wednesday tomorrow.

This is our 20th What The Hell Wednesday post. We were thought it was a pretty good idea when we started it, but it just doesn’t seem to be catching on. What The Hell??? Doesn’t everyone have something to complain about once in a while? or is it just us? So here’s a shout out to some bloggers who have joined us on What The Hell WednesdaysAnne, Shelly, Stephanie, kden,Andrea and Cassie. Stop by and say hi.
Yesterday morning I was watching the Rachel Ray show and there was a doctor on talking about colon health. I wasn’t really paying attention since I was also using my laptop until I heard him say “stool transplant”. I’m like What The Hell???? So of course I had to rewind it and see What The Hell he was talking about. Apparently in some situations where a person gets this bacteria called c-diff sometimes the only cure is a “stool transplant” from a family member. The thinking is the good bacteria from the donor will help get rid of the bad bacteria in the donee. Um….ewwwwwwwwwww. How do you start that conversation?
While my husband is in China, we’ve been using Skype to keep in touch. I sit on the bed with Sissy on one side and J-Man on the other. Usually this works for a few minutes until they start their whisper fighting. My husband can’t hear the whisper fighting, but I can and inside I’m like “What The Hell?”. So I whisper yell at them, but really, whisper yelling doesn’t work..
Stacy
The very first day of February vacation I hear this conversation between my boys, “I’m bored. Yea there’s nothing to do. Stop breathing so loud. I’m not, you’re just weird. I’m not weird, you’re stupid. Shut up. You shut up. No you shut up.”What The Hell? I’m in the other room thinking “Both of you shut up stop fighting.” It’s the very first day of vacation, play the Wii, or the computer, or your DS! Nothing to do my ass……
I’ve decided that I want to go running. Yep running, well more like jogging, but still, something I don’t usually do. It’s not so bad, I can keep up a pretty good pace, and definitely feel it. Of course when I say to people that I went jogging I get the same response. “YOU?” What The Hell? That’s kinda rude if you ask me, and I know rude. Yes me, I can run, why can’t people just say, “good for you.” But no, I get the shocked “YOU?” and then a giggle. What The Hell people, I’m standing right here and can hear you!
I have to agree with Elle on our 20th WTHW. We have our few loyal bloggers that always join us for WTH(and we love them for that Anne, Shelly, Stephanie, Kden, Cassie & Andrea). But come on people? What The Hell? We all know you guys like to complain……we’ve read it on your blog! Just sayin’
The above picture is from the bottom of a motivational poster. It is a real picture with a snowball rolling down a hill. The other day when I was reading it, I started seeing it another way…. I was thinking it sounded more along the lines of, a few stupid people are okay, but put a whole bunch of them together, and they become dangerous. Maybe it’s just my weird thinking…

Have you seen the commercial with the Muppets volunteering to get their free ticket to Disney? It made me think…….I think that Miss Piggy is a stalker, and Kermit should of gotten a restraining order years ago. She’s pretty violent too. She’s always doing those karate moves where she yells “Hi-YA!”. Must be the pork chop…..
Speaking of children’s characters….Pepe Le Pew should be arrested for stalking and sexual assault. He is just crazy. He should be a registered sex offender with an ankle bracelet. Or go to rehab with Tiger Woods. Maybe that will help him.
Bugs Bunny has some issues too. I’m thinking he’s straight, but definitely likes to cross dress, and wear makeup. He definitely needs some therapy. These are the thoughts that go through my head when I’m stuck watching kids television shows all day long.
If everything happens for a reason, I would really like to know “the reason.”

I’m back to single motherhood for another 8 days. I have to admit I like when m husband goes away for a few days, but this is getting to be not so fun. He was home for a week in between Florida and China, but since it was the kid’s vacation, I still had them all day then worked each night. I feel like I haven’t had a break in weeks. Oh, ya, right, I haven’t. Right now he’s sceduled to be home on Sunday afternoon, but if there are any issues he is supposed to stay another week. We won’t know for sure until Thursday or Friday. There are only so many nights you can stay up late watching TV, surfing the net and eating Hershey’s Kisses in bed before it gets old.
On the plus side we have been using Skype to stay in touch with him. It’s pretty cool to realize he’s all the way in China and we can see and talk to him. The kids like it when he holds up the different snacks from the mini-bar. J-Man was less than impressed with the bag of shrimp chips or what we think are chicken wings in a bag. His first night he was in Hong Kong and found 2 TV channels in English. Of course, one of them was showing a Jackie Chan movie. We’re all a little curious about what he’ll bring home for us. J-Man expects something from Nintendo, like Yoshis or Mario. We try to tell him that Nintendo is from Japan, but he says “It’s made in China.” So is just about everything else kiddo. I told my husband he could bring me home a pearl necklace and his response was “why would you want that?” Really? Oh well, since the stupid bank fiasco I’ll be lucky to get that bag of shrimp chips.
Posted on the February 18th, 2010 under LOST by Stacy
Okay, I’m trying to be more efficient this week. I watched last night’s episode of LOST and took notes. Yep, notes. Am I a dork or am I just doing this for the fans? I’m going to go with doing it for fans. As you can see from the picture above of a very dead John Locke. Not to be confused with the John Locke possessed by the Smoke Monster or the John Lockein the parallel universe still stuck in a wheelchair. Have I lost you yet? Every time I think it’s going to reveal something, I get more and more confused. Again I will talk about what is going on on the Island, and then what was going on in the parallel universe (or whatever they’re calling it!)
So Locke(aka Smoke Monster) had Richard(the guy that doesn’t age) in a trap in the jungle. He let him down and Richard told him that he couldn’t “kill him”. Meaning someone else, not Richard. This didn’t go over well with Smokey. I’m just going to call him that from now on, it’s shorter. Smokey goes to the deserted Others Camp and finds Sawyer drunk and shirtless (yea). Since Sawyer is back to being angry and bitter, he convinces him to go with him into the jungle. As they are walking they run into a young, blond boy (of course right?). They both can see the little boy. And the little boy says, “you know the rules, you can’t kill him.” I’m guessing that this is Jacob as a child…..I know, Jacob is dead, and his body was burned, but this is LOST, everyone comes back to life on here, well, almost everyone (those actresses that were arrested for DUI never came back to life when they got killed). Anyways, Smokey runs after the little boy. Sawyer is alone in the jungle and crazy Richard comes out of nowhere and tells Sawyer that he has to come with him to the temple, and that Locke is not really Locke, and that he wants to kill everyone that is on the island, including Sawyer. Sawyer really doesn’t give a rat’s ass what Richard says. He tells him that he knows that isn’t Locke, but was told by him that if he went into the jungle with him, he would tell him why he was on the island. Smokey returns and Sawyer asks, “where’s the kid?”, and Smokey says, “what kid?” Sawyer then asks him what he is. He says that he was once a man, and that he is trapped, but if Sawyer continues with him all will be revealed (bull crap!) On the other side of the island Ben, the Pilot guy, Sun and Llana bury the real dead John Locke. Ben says some nice words at his funeral, “I’m sorry I murdered him”. Isn’t that nice? Back to Sawyer and Smokey….they climb down a rope ladder on a cliff, Sawyer almost falls down, but Smokey saves him. They enter a cave. In the cave on the ceiling are names, most of the names are crossed out. They do show you some of the names, like - 23-Shepherd, 16-Hurley, 42-Kwon, 4-Locke, 15-Ford, Sayid (can’t remember the number). I personally missed Kate’s name, unless they didn’t show it. Smokey crosses out Locke’s name. I’m guessing that the numbers with the names are those same set of cursed numbers (Hurley’s winning lotto numbers, and the code for that computer). I’m also guessing the crossed out names means they’re dead. Sawyer asks why his name is on the ceiling, and of course he gets a cryptic answer. He tells him that he has 3 choices, 1-do nothing, 2-become the new Jacob and protect the island from nothing, or 3-leave the island. He chooses door #3 with a “hell yes.”
Back on the alternate reality, it’s all about Locke. He’s stuck in the wheelchair, and gets fired for going to Australia to go on the walk about. When he leaves the building he runs into Hurley who’s Hummer is parked too close to his handicap van. Hurley says he owns the company and he will help Locke if he wants another job. Locke goes back to the company and is interviewed by Rose. Rose tells him that she has terminal cancer. She gives him a job as a substitute teacher at a school. When Locke goes into the teacher’s lounge, guess who he runs into? Ben, not quite as creepy as he is on the island, much more dorky and he is a history teacher.
Confused yet? Please feel free to comment with any observations I may of missed. I like to watch the episode again the following week with the subtitles at the bottom. There’s always something you miss!

I finally got my paperwork from the PPS (pelvic pain specialist). The questionaire is at least 6 pages long front and back. It does have the usual questions like ‘where is your pain’, but then there are questions like
Have you ever thought about harming yourself?
Are you anxious or worried for no good reason?
Do you feel sad and miserable?
What The Hell??!! The pain is on my right side of my abdomen, not my head! No, I don’t think about harming myself, no I’m not anxious or worried for no good (who defines good?) reason and no I don’t feel sad or miserable. I feel frustrated that I have had pelvic pain since 8/24 and even after surgery there is still pain. I just want them to find it and fix it, not give me anti-depressants and send me on my way.
Last week while my husband was in Florida he found out that his work was sending him to China next week. I told him he should call our dr and check to see if there were any shots or medicine he should have before he goes. I told him there was a local place called Passport Health that would know what he might need. He just blew me off. He was back at work on Monday and he called me.
Him: One of the other guys here is going to China and went to some place called Passport Health and got some prescriptions.
Me: Really?
Him: Ya, I need the number of our doctor so I can call the office and see if I need to do anything.
What The Hell??!! When it as my idea it wasn’t taken seriously but when it was the “guy from work” it was. Why is that?

Today the kids had a snow day. The problem is, there was NO SNOW! What The Hell? The snow actually didn’t even start until after 3:30 p.m. Another day added on in June.
The other day I was in the checkout aisle at Market Basket. I noticed two Old Male Managers fixing a display and talking to each other. A moment later a girl who couldn’t of been more than 15 years old walked by wearing super tight stretch pants. Both Managers stared at her backside and then looked at each other. Then they looked over at me with my What The Hell is wrong with you look on my face! Seriously! What The Hell?! That’s just wrong and I couldn’t even report them to their supervisor because they were the supervisor!
During my no snow snow day I decided to color my hair. It’s been brown for almost 3 months now so it was time for a change. I decided to go red. Luckily I had bought some red hair color awhile ago. When I got out of the shower I dried my hair and guess what…..no red! What The Hell? It’s like a lighter brown, but no red. Now I have to be careful because in High School I tried to color my hair burgundy and ended up purple.
